XOLO Vs THAI RIDGEBACK - Who is the Weirdest?

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

There is WEIRD and then there is REALLY WEIRD! Two breeds that have caught the world's attention is the esoteric XOLO or Xoloitzcuintli, a statuesque breed from Mexico which resembles the God Anubis or the mystical fable of the hairless Chupucabra, a legendary creature in the folklore of parts of the Americas, a vampire dog-like creature reported to have been seen on several occasions. Then there is the Thai Ridgeback, a muscular and wrinkly dog with a piercing stare and a dominant disposition resembling zombie dogs of films such as Resident Evil. Today Animal Watch reintroduces both these popular breeds and asks the question: Which one is the Weirdest? You decide.......

    I have 2 Thai Ridgebacks - the biggest downsides are their strong prey drive and not being dog-friendly. Forget about off leash dog parks... Even my best-trained neutered male will totally ignore me when he sees a cat or other animal, and no amount of yelling, leash correction, or tapping him to break his concentration makes the slightest impact. Very territorial, as well. Unfortunately, ours are not well-socialized, so even going to the vet is a daunting experience. They also need a lot of exercise.

The second one is afraid of people, but that makes him unpredictable. Anyone getting close to our gate, they both are very aggressive. But I think it’s more so because we didn’t socialize them. My wife wanted guard dogs and now we can’t even have friends over to the house and we have to lock them in rooms when repair people come to the house.

    Ironically Anubis (or his egyptian name Anpu/Yinpu) is an ancient egyptian wolf, previously thought to be a jackal. The reason the Xolo looks like Anubis is cuz they look like a statue, but Anubis had fur 🥰 that being said the Xolo is one of my favorite dog breeds and I absolutely love them. Thai Ridgeback look really cool too

    Both dogs are very strange but beautiful breeds. Since you've covered the Xolo dog, you'll have to cover the Inca Orchid. Another breed which is similar in appearance for hairless breeds. Though the Inca Orchid, I've only seen one up close but not a Xolo dog. The owner was impressed at my knowledge of being able to identify it. The only reason I got it right is because Xolo was the furthest from my mind. Plus, I'm a dog lover so I've always been good at identifying dog breeds ever since my family gave me a stamp book on dogs. The rest is history. I'm always fascinated by the many dog breeds. It was the Xolo dog that became the star and perfect pick for the Pixar/Disney animated film 'Coco'.

    Hi Anneka! I'm 14 years old and I admire you a lot. You're knowledge about wolfdogs is just outstanding. In fact, I would like to give you some suggestions about wolfdog breeds or wolf-looking breeds that you haven't filmed about. I hope you like it: - Hierran wolfdog - Calupoh or mexican wolfdog - East or west Siberian Laika - Mackenzie River Husky - Alaskan Noble Companion Dog - Native American Indian Dog (Not to be confused with the beautiful northaid wolfdog) - Kugsha - American Tundra Shepherd - Kunming wolfdog - Shikokou - Sulimov dog (they aren't wolfdogs, they're golden jackal hybrids, but they are a soon to be recognized breed) - Iberian Wolfdog (These dogs aren't a recognized breed, they are bred in Spain but they're still great and wolfy) - Sakhalin husky (nearly extinct now)
